| Hevenu Shalom Aleikhem |
| The series Hevenu Shalom Aleikhem includes 20 Hebrew language lessons presented through videocasette recordings. Each recorded lesson lasts about 15 minutes and includes the following components: 1. A dialogue that presents a situation related to a specific topic, along with new words and language patterns that are to be learned. The situation does not occur in one continuum, but instead it is generally divided into three segments. 2. Vocabulary: The new words appear after each segment of dialogue. Each word appears together with an English translation. 3. Excercises. 4. And One more Thing -- about Israel, Judaism, History and Zionism. You can study the lessons on your own, at your convenience. The materials can also be used by a group or a class, either as the primary instructional material or as a supplement to another program. Using the video enables you to review each unit as many times as you wish, repeating an entire lesson, a sentence, or just a phrase or word. The series helps develop a basic vocabulary of 750 Hebrew words, based primarily on the ulpan curriculum published by the Hebrew Language Teaching Division of the Israel Ministry of Education and Culture. Each lesson deals with an aspect of the lives of new olim: Ben Gurion Airport, moving into a new apartment, looking for work, studying in ulpan, going to school, etc. For more information visit www.geocities.com/WestHollywood/Heights/3034 |
